thy_o come_n so_o far_o into_o power_n again_o etc._n etc._n now_o observe_v the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o thy_o come_n so_o far_o into_o power_n again_o and_o those_o who_o take_v part_n with_o thy_o father_n &_o thou_o first_o consider_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o thou_o will_v find_v that_o it_o be_v because_o they_o unto_o who_o god_n give_v such_o power_n over_o you_o be_v not_o faithful_a unto_o god_n as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o but_o grieve_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n with_o their_o hypocrisy_n from_o day_n to_o day_n talk_v for_o liberty_n but_o behold_v they_o bring_v forth_o oppression_n and_o so_o become_v worse_a than_o you_o that_o go_v before_o they_o who_o do_v not_o profess_v so_o much_o for_o liberty_n in_o word_n and_o this_o i_o know_v that_o if_o they_o have_v be_v faithful_a unto_o the_o lord_n thou_o and_o those_o call_v thy_o friend_n can_v not_o have_v come_v over_o they_o thus_o as_o you_o have_v do_v therefore_o let_v no_o man_n deceive_v thou_o by_o persuade_v thou_o that_o these_o thing_n be_v thus_o bring_v to_o pass_v because_o the_o kingdom_n be_v thy_o own_o proper_a right_n and_o because_o it_o be_v withhold_v from_o thou_o contrary_a to_o all_o right_a or_o because_o that_o those_o call_v royalist_n be_v much_o more_o righteous_a than_o those_o who_o be_v now_o fall_v under_o thou_o for_o i_o plain_o declare_v unto_o thou_o that_o this_o kingdom_n and_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v proper_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o he_o may_v and_o do_v give_v they_o unto_o whosoever_o he_o please_v and_o whensoever_o he_o please_v he_o may_v take_v they_o away_o again_o and_o give_v they_o unto_o other_o and_o when_o he_o do_v thus_o it_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o right_n and_o this_o know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o just_a hand_n of_o god_n in_o take_v away_o the_o kingdom_n from_o thy_o father_n and_o thou_o and_o give_v it_o unto_o other_o and_o that_o also_o it_o be_v now_o the_o just_a hand_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o take_v it_o again_o from_o they_o and_o bring_v they_o under_o thou_o though_o i_o shall_v not_o say_v but_o that_o some_o of_o they_o go_v beyond_o their_o commission_n against_o thy_o father_n when_o they_o be_v bring_v as_o a_o rod_n over_o you_o and_o well_o will_v it_o be_v for_o thou_o if_o thou_o become_v not_o guilty_a of_o the_o same_o transgression_n now_o thou_o be_v bring_v over_o they_o and_o this_o consider_v that_o those_o who_o be_v call_v thy_o friend_n who_o be_v conquer_v have_v humble_v themselves_o but_o little_a under_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o be_v still_o find_v to_o be_v in_o great_a transgression_n and_o also_o consider_v the_o manner_n how_o this_o thing_n have_v be_v wrought_v and_o carry_v on_o concern_v the_o bring_n in_o of_o thou_o again_o that_o so_o there_o may_v be_v no_o fleshly_a boast_n for_o the_o thing_n be_v plain_o discern_v by_o they_o who_o eye_n be_v single_a and_o i_o shall_v declare_v it_o unto_o thou_o mark_v the_o army_n have_v act_v so_o deceitful_o the_o lust_n and_o gain_n of_o the_o world_n blind_v their_o eye_n and_o they_o have_v so_o far_o provoke_v the_o lord_n until_o his_o decree_n be_v seal_v against_o they_o and_o he_o have_v determine_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v break_v after_o they_o have_v split_v among_o themselves_o and_o turn_v from_o one_o thing_n to_o another_o and_o know_v not_o where_o to_o rest_v and_o the_o lord_n suffer_v some_o of_o they_o to_o rise_v up_o from_o among_o themselves_o to_o deceive_v the_o rest_n and_o so_o they_o through_o dissimulation_n in_o profess_v to_o stand_v for_o those_o who_o have_v so_o eminent_o stand_v against_o thy_o father_n and_o thou_o get_v power_n to_o weaken_v and_o turn_v out_o those_o that_o be_v real_o against_o thou_o as_o disturber_n of_o the_o good_a old_a cause_n as_o they_o term_v it_o and_o so_o by_o little_a and_o little_o strengthen_v those_o that_o stand_v for_o thou_o and_o thus_o the_o deceive_v blind_a man_n provide_v a_o rod_n for_o themselves_o and_o so_o by_o little_a &_o little_o wrought_v themselves_o under_o it_o and_o it_o be_v just_a upon_o they_o for_o the_o rod_n be_v for_o the_o fool_n back_o so_o let_v this_o be_v consider_v that_o this_o be_v not_o carry_v on_o by_o the_o stoutness_n of_o those_o that_o stand_v for_o thou_o nor_o yet_o by_o a_o visible_a plain_a downright_a deal_n but_o rather_o through_o the_o hide_a mystery_n of_o deceit_n which_o be_v suffer_v to_o work_v against_o those_o who_o god_n have_v determine_v shall_v be_v break_v that_o so_o by_o the_o same_o way_n whereby_o they_o have_v deceive_v other_o which_o be_v by_o pretend_v to_o stand_v for_o that_o which_o they_o do_v not_o intend_v i_o say_v even_o by_o the_o same_o way_n they_o in_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v deceive_v themselves_o so_o let_v none_o glory_v in_o what_o be_v do_v concern_v this_o thing_n as_o if_o it_o be_v do_v by_o their_o valour_n or_o wisdom_n though_o i_o can_v true_o say_v the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v permitteed_o these_o thing_n and_o that_o for_o the_o cause_n before_o mention_v and_o he_o will_v be_v glorify_v in_o all_o these_o overturning_n iv._o concern_v the_o great_a danger_n thou_o be_v in_o in_o thy_o come_n in_o etc._n etc._n and_o also_o consider_v the_o danger_n that_o thou_o be_v in_o in_o thy_o

refuse_v to_o bow_v to_o what_o they_o will_v set_v up_o or_o if_o thou_o shall_v not_o satisfy_v the_o ungodly_a covetousness_n of_o their_o priest_n there_o be_v several_a of_o they_o will_v be_v
